Daft Punk's 1997 debut album, 'Homework', took the basic elements of Chicago house and elevated it to the grand scale of prog - rock. When you look at the strange photos and scribbles on the inner sleeves, it might seem like a Supertramp record, rather than something inspired by DJ Deeon. The accompanying videos are even more peculiar. But all this high - art style means nothing if the tracks aren't great, and they are! Tracks like 'Da Funk' and 'Around The World' on late - night MTV2 hooked me in when I was too young to recognize most names on 'Teachers' except Dr. Dre and George Clinton. I stayed for 'Fresh', 'Oh Yeah', 'Alive', and especially 'Revolution 909'. 'Homework' opened the door for a generation of suburban teens to explore records by Todd Edwards, Romanthony, Kenny Dope, and Jeff Mills. It's the first and still one of the best house albums. This double - vinyl pressing comes in a deluxe high - gloss gatefold with printed inner sleeves. Recommended! Features include black double - vinyl pressing, housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket with printed inner sleeves, original release in 1997, and a 2022 re - issue by Daft Life.
Using this Daft Punk 'Homework' double - vinyl album is simple. Just place it gently on your turntable, carefully drop the needle onto the record, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid leaving fingerprints or dirt on the surface. After use, always put the record back in its sleeve to protect it from dust and scratches. Store the album in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, as these can warp the vinyl. When opening and closing the deluxe gatefold jacket, do it gently to prevent any damage to the cover or inner sleeves. With proper care, you can enjoy this amazing album for years to come.
